The flying winger showed his speed to score three scorchers in Nantes

Wales have finished top of their Rugby World Cup pool after claiming a bonus point 43-19 win over Georgia.

But then Tommy Reffell charged down a clearance kick and then won a breakdown penalty shortly after. It gave Wales perfect field position and tight-head prop Tomas Francis crashed over for his third Test try from short range. Sam Costelow added the extras. Towards the end of the first half, Welsh indiscipline gave Georgia access to the 22 for the first time and they made it pay. Warren Gatland's side defended the driving maul well initially but when it was spun wide, captain Merab Sharikadze crashed over, with Luka Matkava adding the extras.

One pass found Louis Rees-Zammit and the outcome was inevitable as he cantered over from the halfway line. Costelow slotted the conversion.
